Over a decade ago the CIA conducted a nuclear sting operation upon Iran. Because of it, the U.N. monitors have to be wary in their past assessments of Iran’s alleged nuclear weapons work. International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) inspectors will have to review intelligence they received about Iran as a result of the sting, in which the CIA passed doctored blueprints for...

(CNN)The deadline for an agreement on Iran's nuclear program is rapidly approaching. Several failing states in the Middle East are being overrun with terrorist groups, and Iran is influencing these civil wars directly and by proxy -- for example, the Houthis in Yemen, Hezbollah in Lebanon and Syria; Iran also exerts control over the army in Iraq. Many of our allies in the...

\"Good morning. We, today, take stock of the important work that was done by our teams in the last months to translate the political understanding we reached in Switzerland in April, into texts, into an agreement, into a political sound agreement. So today with the ministers, we will review all that work that has been done, focus on the main political points that are still open, give guidance to our teams to finalize the work, hoping to manage and do it in next couples of days, stick to the foreseen timetable.
Obviously we have some flexibility as it was the case in Switzerland in April. If a few days more are needed we can take them, the important thing is to manage to translate the political understanding we got a few months ago into a finalized agreement.
I am rather positive that if the strong political will is there from all the parties, we can get that. (...)

Washington (CNN)The U.S. is one of six nations at the table with Iran in Vienna, but the nuclear talks are shaping up to be a high-stakes game of chicken between Washington and Tehran.
The question is, who will blink first? Many would argue it\'s the one who wants the deal more.
One common narrative is that Secretary of State John Kerry, enchanted with his budding relationship with Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif and desperate to cement his place in history, will become wobbly and give the Iranians too many concessions in a final agreement.
It\'s a narrative Kerry aides firmly reject, insisting Kerry has several times threatened to walk away from the table. It also reflects a lack of understanding about the way negotiations of this nature work. While as lead negotiator Kerry may decide tactics, he can\'t ultimately can\'t cross red lines set by President Barack Obama, any more than Zairf or Iranian President Hassan Rouhani can cross the red lines set by Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Iran\'s supreme leader.
Obama, too, badly wants a deal. He also has a legacy to firm up. And without an agreement, he faces the possibility that his final 15 months in office will feature the threat of an accelerated Iranian nuclear program, a breakdown of the sanctions regime and tensions with Israel -- even the remote possibility of an Israeli military strike. What\'s more, Iran could also act out more in the region, increasing its antagonism of U.S. allies.

Iran signaled Sunday it is amenable to having nuclear talks with world powers extended by up to a year if no real progress toward a deal is achieved later Sunday, the eve of a deadline
Foreign ministers holding marathon negotiations in the Austrian capital Vienna have been deadlocked in their efforts to secure a high-stakes nuclear agreement by Monday.
The United States, Russia, China, Britain, France and Germany have been locked in talks with Iran since February to turn the interim Geneva accord reached a year ago into a lasting agreement by November 24.
At stake is a historic deal in which Iran would curb its disputed nuclear activities in exchange for broad relief from years of heavy international economic sanctions.
two key issues remain: the enrichment process that renders uranium suitable for peaceful uses but also at high purities for a weapon; and the pace of the lifting of sanctions against Iran.
Tehran wants to massively ramp up the number of enrichment centrifuges — in order, it says, to make fuel for future reactors — while the West wants them dramatically reduced.

John Kerry is making a final push to deliver President Obama\'s biggest foreign policy goal: a nuclear deal with Iran
International negotiators have extended their deadline once again as they struggle to reach a nuclear deal with Iran.
Negotiators had been running up against a Tuesday deadline, after initially extending a June 30 deadline amid lingering differences. On Tuesday morning, the State Department said the new deadline is now Friday, as talks continue.
\"We\'ve made substantial progress in every area, but this work is highly technical and high stakes for all of the countries involved,\" State Department official Marie Harf said in a statement. \"We\'re frankly more concerned about the quality of the deal than we are about the clock, though we also know that difficult decisions won\'t get any easier with time -- that is why we are continuing to negotiate.\"
She said they\'re taking the talks \"day to day\" in pursuit of a comprehensive agreement, and Secretary of State John Kerry will remain in Vienna for discussions.
\"To allow for the additional time to negotiate, we are taking the necessary technical steps for the measures of the Joint [Plan] of Action to remain in place through July 10,\" Harf said, referring to a prior interim agreement.
The extension raises questions about whether world powers can resolve their differences and strike a deal to cut off Iranian pathways to a bomb. President Obama earlier warned that the U.S. could walk away if they\'re in danger of seeing a bad deal.
